Small cars large seats

[macp]

We are looking to change our Fiesta 1.25 for something of a similar size but with larger seats if possible.Swmbo and I have fairly long legs and in other small cars we have found the seat base to be too short.Anybody have any suggestions or will we have to go for a mid size hatch A3,1 series,Golf etc.

Weirdest 'what car?' thread ever.

In all seriousness, BMW M-Sport seats (well, at least the ones I've come across) have an extendable bit at the front of the base that can be extended. Try a 1-Series.

I knew I would do it one day

Yes the BM Msport seats are superb but not seen anything like that in a small car the size of a fiesta.

I know exactly how you feel, I have a jaguar xjr and I find the seat squabs too short and cut into my thigh which makes it uncomfortable on a long run, although the seats themselves are fantastic

Rent a new shape focus for a few days, after that all seats will feel like large seats.

Not got much experience with Minis - I assume they don't share any seat bits with BMW?

Volvo C30. Volvo seats are the most comfortable in the world.
